CBS Makes Decision On Tony Romo Following His Arrest

A second executive said that nobody was hurt and Romo contacted the higher-ups immediately to inform them of what happened. The network reportedly views the incident as a "lapse in judgement" rather than a fireable offense.

“Thankfully, Tony didn’t hurt himself or anyone else, and most importantly, no lives were lost. He knows he made a terrible decision and is well aware of it and he knows he disappointed not only himself, but those he works with and family," the second source told them.

“He contacted his bosses almost immediately to let them know what had happened because he understood the story would spread quickly once it became public. He’s already canceled his appearance at the golf tournament he was scheduled to attend and play in, and over the next few weeks he’s looking to keep a low profile while focusing on getting himself ready for the upcoming season.

“In the meantime, he’ll deal with the legal process, comply with whatever the court decides, and let his attorneys handle the situation as they work toward resolving the matter. His goal is to put this behind him as quickly as possible.

“As for his job, he won’t be fired. While the incident is unquestionably serious, those around him view it as an isolated lapse in judgment rather than something that defines him.”

Romo at CBS

The former Dallas Cowboys starting QB has been the lead color commentator at CBS for years now, calling three Super Bowls on top of his weekly role covering the network's top game of the week.

While many fans have been highly critical of Romo in recent years, CBS is clearly in no hurry to push him out of the job.
